About this map

Corpus Christi serves as the focal point of this 2022 survey, illustrating the complex intersection of deep-water maritime industry and urban settlement. The landscape is defined by the massive industrial engineering of the Corpus Christi Channel and a series of specialized basins including the Chemical Turning Basin, Avery Point Turning Basin, and Main Turning Basin. These waterways facilitate access to the Viola Channel and Tule Lake, marking the transition from open Corpus Christi Bay to the inland shipping corridors.

Genealogists will find significant value in the documentation of several historic burial sites, ranging from Old Bayview Cem near the downtown core to the distant Rosita Cem in San Patricio Co. The map also details the civic and educational infrastructure of the city, featuring the Nueces County Courthouse and Del Mar College. The geographic relationship between established residential districts and newer developments like Flour Bluff Junction provides a clear view of the city's modern footprint.
